Abstract
A roper's glove is of knitted construction and designed to reduce bulk in the knuckles so as to allow a high degree of flexibility and a full range of motion in gripping and handling a rope. Most of the glove is of normal knit construction, but across knuckles the knitting courses are formed of a substantially lighter and less bulky feeder yarn to provide flexibility. Preferably about five such courses comprising the lighter feeder yarn are included at each knuckle, separated by several normal knitting courses. With reduced bulk in the knuckles, when the hand is closed around a rope the user has better contact with the rope for enhanced feel and control.
